Quote from R3DMAN :its my local track

this vid is a really good one for showing you the track and layout etc.. bear in mind this car is relatively softly sprung but mine (red on in the vid) isn't at all and is quite hard yet its still very very stable.

Nice Video...and if you look at the drivers shoulders, they bump around....your not racing on an air strip

WOW that your car, the red one.....you drive like a women ..just kidding R3dmam....that is a nice upgrade you got going on there, going to race it properly?

Quote from R3DMAN :im not using tiagos version.. (the conversion) im using the scratch made one.. but its just soo bumpy.. and the track is just not that bumpy wish he would sort it out.

Never driven on Croft personally, so I don't know, I just love that its a UK track, and a layout I remember back from Toca2 days, and considering I love British Motorsport...just love it...

I know what you mean, non of them are finished, polished, lazer scanned tracks, but they are all drivable....and I am just trying to get a good group of drivers together for a bit of fun instead of Ferrari's, GT Cars and the International circuits....that's all

OK DWB, thanks for that. Just uploading the tracks now, tried and tested on server so I know they work.

Was going to do the same as last night, but give 15mins for Qual ( as that averages out 7 laps ) and also allow mid join for Race, so people are not hanging around waiting.

Also going to change the amount of laps, respective of the circuit, so the longer Donny, Brands GP, Silverstone we do 10 laps, Croft we do 12 laps, and Brands Indy we do 15 laps. This works out to around 15-20 per race..

Quote from DeadWolfBones :Had an interesting race last night on a server that pitted the X-Bow against the E30 DTM.

Where they close ? What I don't want is somebody joining and doesn't stand a chance because of car choice, I want it to be a level playing field and just down to driver ability

I have just copied the Croft folder, from the server back to my PC, just in case I dropped a bollock, and it still crashes....I have also changed the file to 5 pit boxes.

So you got me R3dman why you are so special LOL

Quote from R3DMAN :how come i was able to get on then?

i thought that if it was the pitboxes nobody could join.

Yeah strange one R3dman....but I suffered the same problem with Donington, just AC crash with Window's error and that turned out to be pit box issue.

I still cannot join, just AC crash and windows error

Fordie

PS - will test and drop the Clients to 5

Quote from R3DMAN :i had to rename croft_v0.1 to just croft.

then it worked.

Mine is named Croft already, as what I downloaded to my PC I uploaded to server, and still doesn't work for me....I think it is the Pit Box Problem I had with Donington as had the same error...

DWB and R3dman....do you have the same error?? AC has just crashed on me

Fordie

PS - I know what the problem is, as seen it before, so need to determin how many pit boxes he has done for Croft. I know limit at Donny was 19, and Brands is 24, but thought Croft would be safe when I set server to 19, and I know Silverstone is fine....guess not....Sorry guys, that was so much fun and great racing

All I can say, it's a learning curve for me and using non Kudos tracks, so will suffer problems.....apologies again

Quote from Bose321 :No sorry, the other way around.

I recall a video (I believe the footage I posted), but with a dnb. I believe it was something from Concord Dawn or Pendulum, but I'm not sure.

This one?

Quote from Bose321 :I'm looking for a clip... I believe it was Man for all seasons the song. It was a BMW M5 clip from another movie I believe. I recall the song was a mashup or something. Perhaps you guys know what I'm talking about. I can't believe I can't come up with it.

edit: Isn't this the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrLYQnjzH7w ?

That's Blur Song 2 ( from Fifa )

Actually I have found a use for them....a Backup device..there is no working components, and there access time is quicker, so over night backups are brilliant, forgot to mention that

Yes Bose, I have used SSD, and use them all the time (for work) but the amount we go through, and how much agro they, and we as in support get, I would not say they are solid.

They are good for the casual person like me and you, but for heavy/hardcore/always on stuff....you cannot beat a SAS Raid 5 setup, excluding the noise...but just turn your speakers up

SSD are faster, there is no doubt, but unless you have a blank cheque to throw at them, Raid them, apart from loading Windows faster, what else to they really provide...it doesn't speed up gaming, it might load your page file quicker, but then you are lacking Ram if your PF is that big...seriously for what you pay, HD are still more reliable that SSD's....at the moment

Quote from Mysho :Am I blind or there is no SSD drive for Windows? Maaan...

Why should there be....oh great you get in to Windows in seconds....just to Windows kick you out in the same space of time....yes they are quicker, but from what I have experienced they are less that solid
